This textbook has been written to cover almost all the topics on engineering drawing that can be taught in the engineering courses both at degree and diploma levels. Initial chapters of the book cover topics of line-work, engineering scales and engineering curvesIn the next stagefundamental principles of projections and orthographic projections of pointsprojections of straight linesprojections of solids and projections of planes are discussed. Subsequent chapters cover various machine elements such as fasteners, couplings and bearings. A large number of solved problems with solutions are added to strengthen the subject matter
